\"Ks1It is an amazing feeling when children come out of school so enthusiastic to share what they have learnt. This is even more the case when that child has trouble expressing themselves or communicating in general. This term has been one of those times as The Sensory Seeker kept coming home telling me all about outer space. He came home with a rocket he made and even asked me to get him a book about Space.<\/p>\n

Miles Kelly’s 100 Facts Books<\/strong><\/h2>\n

I was lucky enough to be asked if we would like copies of Miles Kelly’s\u00a0100 Facts Solar System<\/a> and\u00a0100 Facts Stars & Galaxies<\/a>,\u00a0100 Facts\u00a0Space Travel<\/a>. These books are full of fun facts, quizzes, cartoons and ideal for children as they are beautifully illustrated and presented in a fun way. Visit the Pinkoddy Facebook<\/a> Page for more insight into the books.<\/p>\n

We were also sent a place mat about living in space taken from the book\u00a0100 Facts\u00a0Space Travel and set a recipe challenge. The challenge got us to think\u00a0about how Astronauts ate food in space. How they had to have it strapped down and use straws so that it did not float away because of the weightlessness. The boys learned how the food is dried to save weight. They only eat with spoons – no plates, knives and forks.<\/p>\n
